The work is done and then used as a basis for the lessons in books. This gives life to the class room work. Both teachers and children feel that they are writing, talk. ing and figuring on actual things, which always lends enthusiasm to the work. To make the school more real we frequently invite the parents to be present. They are made to feel that the school is the center for their acI tivities. Moreover they become interested in themselves, because the 1 children, in learning useful things are doing work that their parents ! can understand. They go home with information about cotton, corn, winter greens; about the care of live stock and of soils. They gain some idea about washing dishes, setting the table and putting a room in order. The effect has been highly gratifying. A new light has come into the community, which shows in the face of many of those old hardheaded black folk, who used to be none too enthusiastic about education. The change is a process of course, but there are fewer rags in the windows in that community, fewer toppling-down fences. This training has taken nothing from the "book side" of these children's education. Their teaching is thorough and they complete the sixth grade, being admitted by certificate to the corresponding class in Tuskegee Institute?and some, preferring to take the written test, have made the next higher class. vVlth this double training the children of this community are brighter and happier and are doing much to add sweetness and contentment to rural life.?
